Subject:when is a space a real space Author:Gerald Nelson Date:22 Feb 2003 10:07 AM
In the following xml
[para][emphasis]Marginal revenue (MR)[/emphasis]( = [symbol]D[/symbol]TR/[symbol]D[/symbol]Q).[/para]
I really want to have a space after (MR) in my xml. But when I put a space there, either before or after the closing emphasis tag, stylus deletes it when I use the indent xml button. I don't want to preserve white space. Surely a single space is not whitespace is it?

If you don't want to globally preserve white space, you can do it locally,
by adding a xml:space="preserve" attribute to the "emphasis" element.
